the National colors. Streamers
hanging from ceilings to electric
pendants; a life size bust of Lin
coln, kindly loaned by Dr. Truno-
bovver, draped with silken .flagsj
with pictures ot Washington, Jeff
erson, Lincoln and President elec

a scene as beautiful as it was pa
triotic. During the three-piece re
freshment hour a charming little
musical and literary program waa
renaered, to which the following
ladies, each one at her best, con
tributed: Mesdames Gibbs, F rank
